Book The Causal Relationship Between Information and Communication Technology and Foreign Direct Investment

Download or read book The Causal Relationship Between Information and Communication Technology and Foreign Direct Investment written by Roghieh Gholami and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the simultaneous causal relationship between investments in information and communication technology (ICT) and flows of foreign direct investment (FDI), with reference to its implications on economic growth. For the empirical analysis we use data from 23 major countries with heterogeneous economic development for the period 1976-99. Our causality test results suggest that there is a causal relationship from ICT to FDI in developed countries, which means that a higher level of ICT investment leads to an increase inflow of FDI. ICT may contribute to economic growth indirectly by attracting more FDI. Contrarily, we could not find significant causality from ICT to FDI in developing countries. Instead, we have partial evidence of opposite causality relationship: the inflow of FDI causes further increases in ICT investment and production capacity.

Book Causal Relationship Between Foreign Direct Investment and Growth

Download or read book Causal Relationship Between Foreign Direct Investment and Growth written by Vijayakumar Narayanamoorthy and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we examine the causal relationship between Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Growth of the BRICS countries. We employed Industrial Production Index (IPI) as a measure of Economic Growth. The stationarity of the data series are checked using Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) Test and tested for the existence of co-integration. Johansen Co-integration model found that the Brazil alone co-integrated among the selected countries at levels. The Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) employed to trace the existence of long run relationship. The results of VECM found that Growth leads FDI bi-directionally for Brazil, Russia and South Africa and FDI leads Growth uni-directionally for India and China respectively.

Book The Impact of Foreign Direct Investment and Export on Gross Domestic Products in Developing Countries

Download or read book The Impact of Foreign Direct Investment and Export on Gross Domestic Products in Developing Countries written by Antoine Niyungeko and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, , language: English, abstract: This paper aims to investigate the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI), export (EXP) and gross domestic product (GDP). The impact of interaction between EXP and FDI on GDP was also examined. For this purpose, quantitative approach was adopted. Secondary data for 49 countries whose gross national income per capita was less than 6 000 $ were collected. Spearman correlation, robust regression and causal mediation analysis were performed. Spearman correlation showed very strong correlation among GDP-FDI-EXP. Robust regression indicated that all regression coefficients are statistically significant indicating a positive moderation effect of the interaction between EXP and FDI on GDP. Causal mediation effect indicated that average causal mediated effect is statistically significant while average direct effect is not statistically significant, indicating full mediation. The effect of FDI on GDP is transmitted to GDP through increasing EXP. The effect of the interaction of FDI and GDI was found statistically significant. The results are consistent with empirical studies and existing theories.

Book A Granger Causality Analysis Between Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth

Download or read book A Granger Causality Analysis Between Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth written by Sharmiladevi . and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign Direct Investment is globally considered as an inevitable vehicle for the prospective development of developing countries. Governments across the globe are taking all possible efforts to pull in as much Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) as possible. Across countries it has proved significantly time and again that FDI enhances the development of the economy in many channels. This paper examines the existence of link between FDI and economic growth. Pair wise Granger Causality Analysis is used to study causality. Gross Domestic Product is proxied with Economic Growth. With two lags, our results suggest that there exists a bi directional relationship between lagged values of FDI and GDP.

Book Foreign Direct Investment in South Asia

Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment in South Asia written by Pravakar Sahoo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s, the governments of South Asian countries acted as ‘facilitators’ to attract FDI. As a result, the inflow of FDI increased. However, to become an attractive FDI destination as China, Singapore, or Brazil, South Asia has to improve the local conditions of doing business. This book, based on research that blends theory, empirical evidence, and policy, asks and attempts to answer a few core questions relevant to FDI policy in South Asian countries: Which major reforms have succeeded? What are the factors that influence FDI inflows? What has been the impact of FDI on macroeconomic performance? Which policy priorities/reforms needed to boost FDI are pending? These questions and answers should interest policy makers, academics, and all those interested in FDI in the South Asian region and in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan.

Book Foreign Direct Investment  Regulations and Growth

Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment Regulations and Growth written by Matthias Busse and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This paper explores the linkage between income growth rates and foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows. So far the evidence is rather mixed, as no robust relationship between FDI and income growth has been established. The authors argue that countries need a sound business environment in the form of good government regulations to be able to benefit from FDI. Using a comprehensive data set for regulations, they test this hypothesis and find evidence that excessive regulations restrict growth through FDI only in the most regulated economies. This result holds true for different specifications of the econometric model, including instrumental variable regressions. "--World Bank web site.
